Guy teaches simple and insightful concepts delivered in a candid and interesting presentation that will probably glue you to your seat once you start watching. Among other things, he talks about:

Spike Humer has graciously shared a video of the presentation he made a couple of months ago in the Jay Abraham Joint Venture Power Partnering Super Summit.

This is a 30 minute video on the essentials of presentation, negotiation, and persuasion in deal making, joint venture creation, and high-ticket selling. Participants were given unique strategies and information on presenting joint venture, strategic alliance, deal making, and selling opportunities in any market, economy, or industry.

It’s a Friday afternoon here as I watch the video of the Jay Abraham seminar that I posted a couple of weeks ago. In this age of information overload, sometimes it does take a bit of time to get down to doing things. Increasingly, it is also getting harder and harder to capture the attention of our prospect.

If you haven’t got a chance to watch it yet, here’s a brief outline of what it contained:

Here are some recorded segments from the Rich Schefren event in Disney. The first clip has Jay Abraham answering a question from the audience about what it takes for someone to stand out in his market.
